SLOW FLOW: Exploring the foundations of body, mind, and breath positions with emphasis on Classic postures. This is a great transition practice for anyone wanting to take more of a moderate level class. The postures are held a little less time than in a restorative class and longer than a flow. Combining classical yoga traditions with innovative refinements, this approach is marked by a great and even mix of stretch, strength, balance and mindfulness. A great style as a way to build strength, stamina and flexibility while cultivation a sense of graceful peace and well-being.

The Iyengar basic principles of movement are compatible with current
developments in the field of physical therapy and in other modern

innovative refinements, Mr. Iyengar’s approach is marked
by dynamism and precision. Iyengar Yoga is unsurpassed as a way
to build strength, stamina and flexibility while cultivation a
sense of graceful peace and well-being.
In an Iyengar class, poses are typically held much longer than
in other schools of yoga, so that practitioners can pay close
attention to the precise muscular and skeletal alignment this
system demands. Also specific to Iyengar, which is probably the
most popular type of yoga practiced in the United States, his
use of props, including belts, chairs, blocks, and blankets to
help accommodate any special needs such as injuries or structural
imbalances. For more information, visit www.iyisf.org.

MEDITATION (See the Meditation page):
Meditation is a practice of concentrated focus upon
a sound, object, visualization, the breath, movement, or attention
itself in order to increase awareness of the present moment, reduce
stress, promote relaxation, and enhance personal and spiritual growth.
Meditation is the ultimate technique and at the core
of all the Yoga practices. This is part of Yoga’s system for
waking up to your essence/potential.

NIDRA:
Yoga Nidra is a state of consciousness also known as "yogic sleep." The Yoga Nidra state is most similar to that of deep dreamless sleep, with the notable difference that the person is fully awake. In addition, Yoga Nidra is also a practice conducive to entering the Nidra state. Through guided relaxation techniques and visualization, this practice aims to create a deeply relaxing state for exploration of latent consciousness.Yoga Nidra is a powerful practice that complements meditation and that can be helpful in noticing deep seated habitual patterns of action and thought. This class starts with a brief section of gentle stretches to release body tension in preparation for lying down in a restful position for most of the practice.

PRANAYAMA:
Breath control. Although breathing is one of our involuntary bodily
functions; pranayama (the science of breath) –consists of
a series of exercises intended to bring more oxygen to the blood
and to the brain and to control prana or the vital life energy in
the body. Prana commonly translates as "air," "breath,"
"spirit," "life," "life force," "energy,"
"subtle energy," or "the upwards moving energy currents
within the body." You will practice Pranayama techniques in
every yoga class.

PRENATAL YOGA (See the Prenatal Yoga page):

RESTORATIVE
YOGA: (See also Therapeutic
Yoga)
Restorative Yoga helps to restore health, strength, or consciousness,
producing or stimulating physical, mental, or emotional vigor, pertaining
to rebuilding, repairing, or reforming.
A Restorative practice is especially good for beginners and those
with injuries.

SLOW FLOW: (See
also Flow)
Slow Flow Yoga is a variation of Flow Yoga, which is aimed at integrating the actions of the breath, the body, the mind and the spirit. This type of practice emphasizes the breath as the element that guides, inspires and brings the poses to life. Interspersed with the poses there are pauses throughout the practice to observe clearly the effects of the practice. In addition to the integrative effects of this practice, the slow pace of movement facilitates a meditative approach to Yoga.

SWING YOGA:
Selected classes set aside 15-30 minutes for the Swing series of postures designed to further the benefits of the earlier traditional yoga class. Specifically, you will experience traction on the spine , shoulders, arms and legs. They are also wonderful for rebuilding stability in the joints; balancing hormones; lymphatic system and general circulation flushing. Don't be surprised if after a little practice you actually grow taller!
